A Christmas present for my brother, Shonky. Plug it into your car stereo, and the SoundRacer makes your boring family car sound - and even somehow feel - like a roaring V8. Thanks to Shonky, Niss, Jasper and Evie for their help.

Ooooh V10 or V8 though... Can't really justify both for what is basically utterly useless yet so incredibly tempting biggrin

After watching the 5th Gear review (here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KATBvGl4yC4 ) I'm glad I ordered the V8 version, and the instructions are in the comments to change the rev-range

I emailed them yesterday actually to ask where mine was and they said they expected them in any day now. Hopefully should be on the way soon.
